It depends on your trading style, i've had double digit losses several times this year...and i've had losses of 1/3rd my account in a day more than once because i take on a lot of risk and it's common in my pairs style of trading. Now if i was directional trading it would be different, but when...

I can say the same for my office...the elite 5-10% consistently make upper 6 figures/7 figures but many of the 6 figures guys could be making more if they really pushed themselves harder. Aside from that group there's another group representing 10-15% (let's call beta traders) that consistently...

ack you should have held the bhpfcx, i'm still holding a bunch, has a lot of retracement to go!

I didn't say firm i said office, run by rob friesen.

So Bernanke is responsible for the commodity sell-off? You're such a clown...didn't you also say p/es don't mean anything, haha.

I don't care what anyone says no one would have predicted this sector would have free-falled in the last 2 months like it has...Mos just over $30? No fucking way....at least my spread came in a bit with CF leading the group so i dumped half the position, MON is next to report wenesday...

I've gotten completely whacked in one position the last two days, currently holding a huge position of 5000 long CF vs 3200 short Mon...i really need this to start coming in for me or i may be finished :(

Well shut my mouth looks like it panned out for you...I took my CnxMee off as it's come in a bit and look to get long again although the spread is clearly trending down so I would usually let it ride but i have some of that position in another pair. My timeframe depends on a number of factors...

Umm I should tell you i have that exact opposite position with FCL and MEE instead of ACI. You do realize CNX is the most over-valued in the sector and lowered it's forecast today?

Okay so the open loss is more or less insignificant overall? Also wondering why you put positions on in the last 30 minutes.

Could you expand on this a bit?

How many branches of swift are still remaining in Canada, any left?

Are you kidding, don't you realize how close you are to one of the top prop offices in Canada?

I was under the impression if you're doing it professionally it has to be declared as income. but that could be just the setup Bright has with its traders.

I don't know johhny, i've heard from many people that once you learn how to scalp pairs then you really know how to trade and after awhile these conditions are like printing money...there's a guy here that did a million shares in a day, the opportunities in a market like this are endless.

I'm in Langley...deal wise, not sure there is any aside from the rent structure of being in an office vs at home, i haven't' been there long so let me get back to you...

90% are commodity-related...I've trimmed down my pair list over the last few months so i need to research a couple more.

I used to trade from home but now in the office I will be chatting with the other guys about all this stuff, i think most formed llc's but i could be wrong.

I would be having an amazing week but i've been doing all kinds of stupid shit going extra long and extra short, if i just stick to scalping my pairs i would be cleaning up....tabernac! I'll probably be flat afer paying all those juicy bright commissions.

Does that include all auto expenses...i hear what they allow for gas reductions is something retarded, like 7 cents/mile?
